How many people are sick of ENworld going down?

[Knight Otu]

Horacio - I understand that he is not happy that the main site is down, and that the forums tend to be slow. I do not understand why he feels he has a right to be insulting. I thought that was clear in my post?

ColonelHardisson - He might have been a lurker long before. I know I have been a lurker long before I registered.

He's insulting, yes.

Should we be insulting in return? Let's try not to be. (though I propably failed that before)

Hey hey, no need for personal insults. I disagree with the position he takes, but it can be very frustrating not to access the boards.

O.K., sorry.

I didn't say he was a moron, I only said he was behaving like one, and it was true.

Using his expression, I'm sick of people coming here and venting their (false) rants like if they had the right to complain. This site is a wonderful gift than Morrus and the Moderators (good name for a band... ) offer to us, not a right.

[EDIT]And he was rude and insulting, too... [/EDIT]

As someone who's webmastered a site since 1998, I know that Morrus' problems are almost totally host-related. Once he gets his host to fix the problems, they will stop. The too many database connections problem is due to heavy traffic on both the news site and the boards, which are both database driven. Once they're split into two databases with sufficient connection allowance, the problems will cease.

Yestereday's TCPIP connection problems are also a host issue, which may have been caused by an Apache stoppage, or a DNS problem, or a denial of service attack, or one of many other possibilities. None of these are Morrus' fault, and have nothing to do with his site redesign.

Have patience. I'm sure he'll either have it worked out, or he'll find another host. This is the way it all works. If you don't like it, try building (and paying for) your own site that gets this amount of traffic and you'll see just how easy it's not.

We all know the problem is here and Morrus is trying to get a hold of the pieces that are not directly in his control to straighten things out.

When you go to your favorite RPG site and find that it's down, enjoy the time with a good book or go outside and enjoy the fall weather. Go talk to your family and friends and make to realtionships with many of the great people on this Earth. En World should not be so important in your life that having it down for a few days totally disrupts your existance.

I only get upset when it goes down because then I have to work. Its a lot better then the days when there only allowing certian number of people on the boards at any one time. Oh well its back up now.


Keep up the good work guys

Should be fixed! Plus, we'll soon quadruple our RAM.

Thanks, Morrus!

I have been coming to the fourms for awhile, i just registered so i can post. Ever since the forurms have been down this week, it says "message boards are still open" I click on that, and 75% of the time NOTHING HAPPENS, does not go to fourms, nothing. So I hope you can see my frustation. I hope all of you that have insulted me burn in hell.

 

[Crothian]

Ya, it can be frustating, but it's understandible. I can't imagine how much time and effort Morrus has been going through to get this site operating properly.
